ProgrammesThe MSCA Green Charter foresees that activities funded under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions should be performed as sustainably as possible. During the session the speakers will be taking a closer look at the MSCA Green Charter itself
Furthermore the main preliminary findings of a study recently completed by the European Commission on the Charter’s implementation will be presented. The organisers will point to useful guidance material and invite past and current MSCA beneficiaries – individuals as well as institutions – to share tips on how their adopted sustainable practices in their own projects. The event is interactive and will provide opportunities for questions and discussion on policy and practice in greening research.
All information on the event (agenda and registration form) is available via the event announcement on the MSCA website.

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
